The tech industry has been rocked by Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware, bringing sweeping changes to licensing models and pricing structures. Businesses that have relied on VMware for their virtualisation infrastructure are now facing significantly higher costs due to the elimination of perpetual licences in favour of a subscription-based model. With reports of price increases reaching up to 700%, IT managers must urgently seek alternatives to avoid budget overruns.
In today’s fast-evolving manufacturing landscape, connectivity is a crucial driver of productivity, efficiency, and innovation. The integration of advanced manufacturing systems, IoT devices, and real-time analytics platforms has placed unprecedented demands on enterprise networks. Manufacturers are no longer just factories—they’re highly interconnected ecosystems where speed, reliability, and seamless access to cloud and on-premises applications are non-negotiable.
Multi-cloud activity is defined as the process of accessing and managing data, applications, and resources across multiple cloud environments. It involves the distribution of workloads and traffic across different cloud resources in order to improve performance, scalability, and availability.
The network edge is becoming an important part of the enterprise-owned network that is being used to provide a variety of services. Two of the most popular technologies for the network edge are Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). However, with the rise of new technologies, the network edge is evolving. Traditional technologies are being rapidly replaced with new solutions that provide more functionality and flexibility. One such example is the evolution of traditional Wide Area Network (WAN) into Software Defined-Wide Area Network. While SD-WAN has been around for a while, SASE is a newer term that is being used to describe a secure network edge.
Wide area networking (WAN) is a traditional networking solution based on multi-protocol label switching (MPLS). In such solutions, the reliability of the connection depends upon the pre-definition of communicating nodes. But these high-performance networking links between the two sites face limited bandwidths and have some other physical constraints. Hardware defined pre-setup is the primary cause in WAN to shift towards a software defined - wide area networking (SD-WAN) solution.
